No Nougat update for OnePlus 2, confirms OnePlus

OnePlus today confirmed that the OnePlus 2 will not get an update to Android Nougat. “When we built the OnePlus 2 we didn’t have the software infrastructure team in place we do now,” OnePlus said in a statement to Android Authority.

We haven’t heard much in the way of official info regarding the OnePlus 2’s Nougat update ever since OnePlus announced it back in November, so it’s not a huge surprise to learn that the update has been given the axe. It’s still a bummer, though, especially for those OnePlus 2 owners that’ve been waiting for their taste of Nougat to come. Now it looks like they’ll be stuck with Marshmallow unless they decide to load a custom ROM or upgrade to a new phone.
